The collaboration of researchers in different fields, institutions, and nations continues to be important as new ideas and solutions result from the combination of different knowledge and experiences. The Cambridge MIT Institute (CMI) Online Project Assessment System(OPAS) aims to collect…

We strain our eyes, cramp our necks, and destroy our hands trying to interact with computer on their terms. At the extreme, we strap on devices and weigh ourselves down with cables trying to re-create a sense of place inside…

In this paper, a method to combine visual and force information using the
information obtained from the movement flow-based visual servoing system is proposed. This
method allows not only to achieve a given desired position but also to specify the…

Integration of daylight availability in time and architectural space is a critical element in achieving optimal comfort and productivity, as well as in minimizing energy consumption. In recent years, there has been an increase in the demand of the better…

La interculturalidad, como respuesta normativa
al hecho multicultural, reconoce igualmente
derechos y obligaciones sin atender a
diferencias culturales y reivindica, con ello, la
igualdad en el derecho a ser diferentes. En este
contexto, los profesionales de la salud se ven…

El pino canario (Pinus canariensis Chr. Sm. Ex DC in Buch), además de ser
la principal especie forestal del Archipiélago y uno de sus endemismos botánicos más notables, es un interesante modelo de adaptación.
Considerado un fósil viviente, representa un…

Increasingly, knowledge-based tasks such as new product development and market research are being conducted by geographically dispersed teams. Early evidence from knowledge-based view of the firm and geographically dispersed work literatures suggests that at least four kinds of knowledge gaps---transactive…

Knowledge-based Cascade-correlation is a neural network algorithm that combines inductive learning and knowledge transfer (Shultz & Rivest, 2001). In the present thesis, this algorithm is tested on several real-world and artificial problems, and extended in several ways. The first extension…

In this paper an adaptive fuzzy decentralized
control algorithm for trajectory tracking of robot manipulators is developed. The proposed decentralized control algorithm allows the overall closed-loop system to be stabilized while making the tracking error to be uniformly ultimately bounded…
